Strengths: Great Picture, Easy setup
Weakness: Basic Remote
I purchased the Sony 46" 1080P HDTV during Black Friday sales. The TV appears designed for a stand than for mounting - Swivel pedestal and Buttons on top (great if you have kids at home). I connected the basic antenna and was able to pick up more than 8 channels in HD (3 in 1080i). The SD channels were not too bad either. Once I connected the DVD (Samsung 1080P7), the picture blew my mind. The...
Strengths: Sharp and clear picture, Color excellent, Good support by Sony, easy to maneuver remote, excellent directions in manual
Weakness: none
I am very satisfied with product. I highly recommend product to future buyers. There is no glare even though its below a skylight. Very satisfied with Sony support. We have High Density stations and receiving excellent reception. The manual is well written describing TV in great detail. Sound and picture is excellent.
Strengths: This is an awesome TV! Picture quality is excellent, and the TV looks great in my living room.
Weakness: NONE
Upgraded from a 27" CRT and am (obviously) very impressed. This is a very user-friendly television. I did a great deal of competitive research before deciding on this TV, and would recommend it to anyone! In my opinion, this is top-of-the-line!
Strengths: 2 HDMI inputs 2 HDMI inputs 2 HDMI inputs,Picture Quality, Swivel Pedestal,
Weakness: none
This is a wonderful TV! The LCD has the same 1080p resolution as the XBR. Who really wants a heavy floating glass frame around the screen of their TV? And if you place your TV on a stand, the swivel pedestal is a must!
Strengths: EVERYTHING
Weakness: NONE
I bought the April 07 production unit from Fry's and this LCD rocks. Perfect picture in everyway. Digital cable built in. So you can pick up all unscrambled digital cable channels without a hitch. No clouds at all.
Strengths: Amazing picture quality, tons of features and dual HDMI inputs on a true 1080p set
Weakness: Cloudy blacks on LCD panel
This is an absolutely beautiful TV set and I would recommend it to everybody if not for its fatal flaw - an LCD panel with the worst case of "clouding" I've seen. The picture quality is amazing - the colors are vibrant, the screen is bright and large and HD programming is simply breathtaking. If not for the screen clouding, which appears on any black screen - i.e., credits, space scenes,...
Strengths: GREAT picture! And all eight inputs have independent picture adjustment. Four HD inputs (2 HDMI, 2 composite picture) allow us to connect everything we have.
Weakness: We haven’t found any yet
We shopped for several months before selecting this product. The key factor was the picture – we wanted one that looked as natural as possible. Most display units are running the factory default settings, which tend toward oversaturated colors and very bright pictures. We were able to find a few stores where we could play with the picture settings. This product has an easy-to-use on-screen...
Strengths: 1080p on two HDMI inputs, excellent color and picture quality, 1:1 pixel mapping for computer use
Weakness: cloud issue, HDMI is not 1.3, wish the side inputs were 3rd HDMI instead of S-video
there are couple things i wish this tv had to make an excellent tv better. but there is one thing i wish this tv did not have: the clouds during dark scenes. . i would not steer people away from this set altogether, but i would throw up a huge yellow caution flag about the backlight/cloud issue. search for photos online of this issue. keep in mind that some sets are worse than others, and some...
Strengths: Good contrast 1080P
Weakness: Cheap looking remote No HDMI connector on side or front No PIP
I've had this television almost two weeks now, and I haven't seen the "ghosting" or "clouds" others have noted. I have an April 2007 build date. The set is easy to configure, has intuitive menus, and an easy-to-use remote (although it is somewhat cheap looking). This is a much better value than the XBR 2 or 3. Only negatives are a lack of PIP and not enough inputs (HDMI and/or DVI) on the side or...

Very pleased with our KDL-46V2500 Bravia LCD TV
Strengths: Great picture quality which can be viewed from any angle and anywhere in the room, regardless of room lighting.
Weakness: Relatively slow advancement through the various TV inputs on the remote control.
We purchased this LCD widescreen television in November 2007. I was at first reluctant to spend this much on a television, but after using the television for nearly three months, we have absolutely no regrets! The picture is amazing. And the 1080 HD quality on sporting events (assuming you have HD programming) is even better. We have used our television for video games--including Wii and PS3--DVD...
